She crying.

by BlueDreams   Oct 25, 2006


All she does is wallow
In misery and tears
She once thought of the future
To share in years.
.........
She was born into this world
Not knowing what surrounds her,
Her mother was just a child
With no means to support her.
She dreams sometimes of a Mom and Dad
And all the things she should have had
The tears, they fall beneath
Her deep brown eyes, she crying...
But she was born into a world
Not knowing what surrounds her
As she lays her head down, She crying...
There's a shoe box in her closet
Of photographs from when she was a child
But they don't show the hurt
They only seem to catch her when she smiles.
The people who had helped her grow
Did everything they could, how they tried,
But she was born into a world
Not knowing what surrounds her.
And tonight as she lays her head down
The crayon pictures on her wall
She painted back when she was small
Show a life of emptiness and childhood dreams.
The Teddy bear that she holds tight
That helps to get her through the night
She held so hard it's tearing at the seams
But she can't bring herself to say good-bye.
Now today she's out there all alone
In trouble and she's on her own
The weight of the world is on her shoulders
She gambles on love and pays the price.
Convinced there will be no sacrifice
And each passing day, the world a little colder
Her mind raced back to yesterday
She falls to her knees and starts to pray.
She never understood the reason why.
She was born into a world
Not knowing what surrounds her
As she lays her head down she crying...

Note: Will the sorrow of tomorrow Wash away with time? Even if tomorrow doesn't make it here on time? Maybe one day later in time, it will take your pain away. "A true story" I write about a girl that I know many years ago, "Shella s.Walter" Ecuador.

    This is a great piece, I like this piece very much. You have added so much of meaning and emotions in to this piece. Poetic and lexically strong.

    This piece was very powerful and heart wretching. I loved the emotion you put into this piece and the story behind it was quite interesting. I loved the flow it was perfect. The note you added at the bottom was really beautiful. I can't describe this to you. Well done~mel

    FIrst I would like to say that this is another beautiful poem, but It has a few error's that need immediate fixing.

    1) Instead of she crying, it should be She's crying. As in: She is crying

    2) Instead of as she lays her head down, I think that it would sound better and read better as: As she lies her head down.

    Those are the only error's that I see that need to be fixed. Other then that, I loved the story and the whole meaning of the poem. The flow was wonderful and the poem had strong emotions. You have done another wondrful job. Keep up the great work.
    5/5

    Best wishes
    Letty
